Muriel’s Wedding - 30th Anniversary Screening

Saturday May 11 | Gates open 1 hour before the published session time | Film commences at 7:30pm

Toni Collette stars as one of Australia’s most loved characters, Muriel (That’s Muriel!!) in the film that catapulted her to international stardom 30 years ago.

Muriel’s Wedding was a defining moment for modern Aussie cinema – where dags rule, ABBA charts forever, bitchy friends get what they deserve, success is the best revenge, Diedre Chambers pops up everywhere… What a coincidence and being Terrible Muriel, is the only way to go.

Kenny

Saturday May 25 | Gates open 1 hour before the published session time | Film commences at 7:30pm

This hilarious and iconic mockumentary created an overnight Aussie legend and made the profession of Portaloo worker respectable.

The films follows Kenny, the “Dalai Lama of Waste Management” as he navigates life as a modern Aussie battler – eternally optimistic and always willing to put others in front of himself. Witness the hilarity of his numerous personal and professional misadventures – including an oddly glamourous excursion to the Plumber and Cleaner Expo in Nashville.
